Global Warming

image copyright Laurie Rawdon I'm not a very political person or one for pushing my views on people. This piece speaks for itself without a lot of eloquent words I really wish I could write to accompany it. All I can add is after you look at it step outside and see if it doesn't feel just like this looks today and then wonder why???

Very good work, Laurie. This "burning" problem deserves much more attention than it gets.

Artist Reply: You and the melting heat were the inspiration for this one...just put my spin on it. Thank you Lior!

Awesome representation for such a huge problem! Wonderful work to make people think about how they are living! :)

Artist Reply: Thanks so much Carrie Ann!! I'm sorry for the late reply, things have been a bit crazy here. Made me think while I was doing it...still feels like that here...like we're melting

It was 103 today and then Mother Nature turned on the air conditioning. I love the colors and composition!

Artist Reply: Thanks so much Merle!! Thank God for the intervention by Mother Nature...103 Yikes!!!!

Looking at your painting then the thermometer this afternoon could make one believe that the world is indeed melting. I hope it doesn't come to that! Great job, however!

Artist Reply: Thanks so much John!! Sorry for the late reply, things are a little crazy here. Still feels like it's melting here even as I write this at 1:30 am

GREAT WORK LAURIE!!!!

Lili Segal 12 Aug 2007

Wonderful work, Laurie! You showed us today both sides: a slice of Paradise and a slice of Hell... It's up to us to decide where we want to live and where we want our next generations to live, and it's up to us to act before it's too late. As Lior Goldenberg stated wisely the other day, it's GLOBAL WARNING TO GLOBAL WARMING...

Artist Reply: Thank you so much Lili!!! I didn't even realize when I posted that they were so opposite until you pointed it out.

annette steens 12 Aug 2007

our negative thoughts are the cause the global warming and you let us see this in a wonderful way! Thanks Laurie!

Global Warning's Laurie, we need them to be eye catching & this certainly fits the bill. We all need to find better ways to live in harmany with the planet.

Artist Reply: Thanks so much Robin!! We really do need to try to live with Mother Nature not fight against her...she will win every time.
